My organization is currently organized in a very hierarchical fashion.
New upper management is looking at changing the org to a more 'linear'
model, with three 'tracks' focused on three major business processes. One
'track' will focus on the ultimate Consumers of our products (we make
juices, primarily), one will focus on our Customers (retailers, grocers,
wholesalers, etc) and the third will focus on Technology (food technology,
for ex.). My question has to do with information flow: how will it
change, how should it change, what are the dangers, how do we make sure
information is flowing correctly, timely, etc. How can we use information
technology to move information and learnings to the appropriate people at
the appropriate times? . . . . . .
I know there are a lot of issues and concerns I'm not identifying here but
I wanted to get the idea out there to see what people were thinking. Any
thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
